About Brown & Riding
No Other Wholesaler Empowers Retail Brokers Like Brown & Riding
At Brown & Riding, we earn our clients' trust and confidence by consistently adhering to a set of core principles that define how we do business. Our goal is simple: to provide a refreshing, relationship-driven experience that delivers exceptional results.
We are guided by a clear vision: to create a best-in-class experience and superior outcomes for our teammates, clients, and trading partners. To achieve that vision, we remain steadfast in our mission to be a fiercely independent firm that continuously raises the standard of excellence within the wholesale insurance brokerage industry.
The Brown & Riding Difference
Brown & Riding is a premier wholesale specialty brokerage partner for forward-thinking retail brokers who demand accurate market intelligence, efficient execution, and complete transparency. As a truly independent organization, we leverage the expertise of seasoned industry professionals who excel at placing complex risks while consistently putting our clients' interests first.
For more than two decades, client feedback and survey data have shaped our evolution. This ongoing dialogue has enabled us to refine our processes, strengthen our service model, and hold ourselves accountable to the highest standards of performance. The result is a commitment to four foundational principles that guide every client interaction.
We Understand and Manage Expectations
Successful partnerships begin with alignment. We take the time to understand your objectives, priorities, timelines, communication preferences, and the unique circumstances surrounding each opportunity.
By establishing clear expectations from the outset, we ensure accountability, transparency, and consistent execution. We deliver on our commitments, meet agreed-upon deadlines, and proactively communicate whenever circumstances change.
We Keep You in Control
Your client relationships are invaluable, and maintaining visibility throughout the placement process is essential. That's why we operate with complete transparency at every stage of the transaction.
You'll always have access to critical information, including submission status, market engagement, compensation arrangements, and placement progress. Through our 24/7 online client portal and direct access to our experienced professionals, you'll never be left wondering where a submission stands. Our senior leadership team remains actively involved and readily available to address concerns and provide support whenever needed.
We Put Your Interests First
Our success is measured by yours. We are committed to placing your interests and those of your clients ahead of our own, delivering value that exceeds expectations whenever possible.
Our objective is to earn your trust by helping you achieve better outcomes and strengthen your client relationships. We bring every submission to market with a relentless focus on securing the optimal combination of coverage, terms, and pricing. Our clients continue to rely on us because we serve as true advocates. If a solution falls outside our capabilities, we'll help identify alternative resources that may better serve your needs. Your success remains our highest priority.
We Deliver Comprehensive Options
Our clients benefit from the collective expertise, market relationships, and resources of the entire Brown & Riding organization, not just an individual broker.
We aggressively negotiate on your behalf and work diligently to secure the strongest available market solutions. We believe your clients deserve choices backed by meaningful analysis, not a single option accompanied by a simple recommendation.
By approaching a broad range of markets and presenting credible alternatives, we help you provide your clients with informed decisions and confidence in the placement process. Our commitment is to deliver comprehensive options, maximize value, and help you achieve the best possible outcome for every risk.

Working with Republic Insurance Group gives you a local independent agent who can answer questions, review your coverage, help with policy changes, and check whether better options are available, including with other insurance companies if Brown & Riding is not the best fit for your specific needs.
Republic Insurance Group is happy to complete a throrough review of your current insurance and search for any and all discounts you may be eligible for.
Yes. Republic Insurance Group can review your Brown & Riding policy and help check for available discounts.
Discounts vary by company and policy type. Commonly offered discount types include bundling multiple policies together with the same company (like auto and homeowner), safe driving records, home safety features (fire, security, water), prior insurance history, paperless billing enrollment, and paid-in-full options (paying your premium annually instead of monthly).
In most cases, switching agents is pretty simple. You usually do not need to cancel your policy or change insurance companies. Instead, you can ask Brown & Riding to transfer your policy to a new agent of record.
The process varies by company, but it often involves completing a short Agent of Record form. Once the change is approved, your new agent can help review your coverage, answer questions, and assist with future policy changes and claims.
Our team can help you with keeping your policies with Brown & Riding, but switching your insurance agent to Republic Insurance Group
No. Republic Insurance Group is an independent insurance agency, which means we are not tied to just one insurance company.
Our job is to recommend the coverage and carrier that best fits your needs, budget, and preferences. If Brown & Riding offers the best value and the right coverage for you, we will recommend it. If another company provides better coverage or pricing, we will show you those options as well.
Because we represent multiple insurance companies, our goal is to help people find the right fit for their situation, regardless of carrier.
